Head of the UK International Cyber ​​Security Office Grant Thornton International Manu Sharma in an interview with the Turkish news agency Anadolu spoke about a significant increase in network security costs in the coming years. According to the specialist, global cybersecurity costs in the next two to three years will reach around 161 billion dollars.

The most actively growing sector of the world economy is cybersecurity




Even in 2015, this figure was significantly less - just over 91 billion dollars. And it must be stated that the main share of such expenses falls on Britain, as well as the United States. These states carry out fabulous in their volumes the work of cyber specialists into the system, including those who monitor screening of political and economic subjects and institutions of foreign countries for screening security. In these same countries, they trumpet more than others that they are becoming victims of hacker attacks, demanding an increase in the level of funding from state budgets.

According to the British expert, in the future the level of information society will only grow, which will impose new requirements for computer security. Manu Sharma notes that household appliances and automobiles are becoming automated. It is noted that a consequence of cyber interference may be, for example, a traffic accident.

A spokesman for Grant Thornton International notes that cybersecurity is a global need in the modern world, "which is becoming increasingly financially expensive."

      For some reason, I remembered the vulgar verse ... We do not sow and do not plow ....... we wave. And is this the engine of the economy? Or is it just using paranoia to wash the loot?

      In-in. And HOW did the pharmaceutical companies rise at the time that “defeated SARS"?

    The effect of the development of Internet technologies, it seems to me, is much less than the cost of cybersecurity. Once upon a time, it was already possible to create isolated communication channels, separate networks for state and financial institutions ...

      The effect of the development of Internet technology is measured in trillions.
      And isolated communication channels in no way cancel cybersecurity. Do you think they closed in LAN and in the house? Nope.

        I don’t argue about trillions when it comes to technology. As for isolated networks, I am aware of one isolated structure. And the costs of cybersecurity within this system are minimal and often there are enough organizational measures. wink
        Why not use other similar systems in other key systems?

    Well, cybersecurity is nomadic! So PR threat and nightmare the world, of course development will go! And if they shouted that the Russians are influencing everything with the help of popcorn, so the most developing one, in a year, would be corn farming, yeprst!

      Eco carries you. In the modern world, in fact you cannot even buy a bread without a transaction through the network. And for at least one reason, it is necessary to invest in cybersecurity.

    At one time, we called cybernetics a corrupt girl of imperialism.
    At that time we were in the lead, now in ..... well, at least for now .. we’ll catch up ....
    We need to work ahead of the curve, and we often start to fuss about the fact.
